additional information | a yeast two-hybrid screening using a cDNA library of osteoclast precursors discloses PPCA as a binding partner of NF-kappaB p50/p65. Forced expression of PPCA with p50/p65 in HEK293 cells decreases both the level of p50/p65 proteins and the transcriptional activity. Overexpression of PPCA causes the disappearance of p50/p65 in both the lysosomal and cytosolic fractions. PPCA is expressed throughout osteoclastogenesis,and the expression is slightly up-regulated by nuclear factor (NF)-kappaB ligand signaling. Knockdown of PPCA in osteoclast precursors with PPCA siRNA stimulates binding of nuclear proteins to oligonucleotides containing an NF-kappaB binding motif and increases osteoclastogenesis | Mus musculus |
